Honors Colloquium

[From Latin: com+loqui: "To talk together."]

"Colloquium" is Latin for dialogue or conversation. The Honors Colloquium is an opportunity
for students to meet and talk with local, regional, and national leaders and scholars
about topics that relate to the semester's courses. The Honors Colloquium series may
also include museum trips, service projects, productions, and other leadership and
learning activities.

Typically there are four colloquia per semester, and honors students are required
to attend all of them to remain in good standing with the Honors Program.

Colloquium Make-up Form

Honors students are expected to attend all colloquia. If a student misses a colloquium,
that student is expected to find and attend a make-up event. That event must be approved
by the Honors staff prior to the student's attendance at the event. Unless a student
misses a colloquium event for class, all make-up colloquium must be accompanied by
a 500-word essay summarizing the details of the event. Once a student has attended
an approved make-up event, they fill out the colloquium make up form below. All submissions
must be in by the first day of finals in order to have successfully made up missed
colloquia for the semester.
